carmustine and B16 Melanoma

carmustine has been researched along with B16 Melanoma in 11 studies

Carmustine: A cell-cycle phase nonspecific alkylating antineoplastic agent. It is used in the treatment of brain tumors and various other malignant neoplasms. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p462) This substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen according to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
carmustine : A member of the class of N-nitrosoureas that is 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)urea in which one of the nitrogens is substituted by a nitroso group.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The chemotherapeutic agents 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU), carboplatin, and camptothecin were incorporated into controlled-release polymers and tested individually against intracranial challenges with one of four tumors (lung carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, colon carcinoma, and melanoma)."3.69Local delivery of chemotherapy and concurrent external beam radiotherapy prolongs survival in metastatic brain tumor models. ( Anderson, RC; Babel, KM; Brat, DJ; Brem, H; Ewend, MG; Pinn, ML; Tabassi, K; Tyler, BM; Williams, JA, 1996)
"The effects on experimental melanoma of a combination of recombinant human tumour necrosis factor alpha (rhTNF alpha) and carmustine (BCNU) were studied in vitro and in vivo."1.28Enhanced anti-tumour activity of carmustine (BCNU) with tumour necrosis factor in vitro and in vivo. ( Gore, ME; Jones, AL; Lakhani, S; McElwain, TJ; Millar, BC; Millar, JL; Powell, B; Selby, P; Winkley, A, 1990)
